Abstract(s)
As Organizações de Economia Social (OES) sentem, cada vez mais, necessidade de transformar os seus padrões de gestão e os seus profissionais. Por outro lado, o empreendedorismo social está a ser cada vez mais debatido no mundo atual. Apesar de ser ainda uma área pouco explorada em Portugal, começa a destacar-se como um fenómeno transformador da sociedade. A conjugação destas problemáticas fortalecem, sem dúvida, a economia e provocam mudança destes contextos, assim como da região em que atuam. A nossa investigação foi conduzida no concelho de Castro Daire, nas OES com respostas para a terceira idade. Os resultados obtidos permitiram perceber a representação dos gestores/diretores dessas OES, relativamente aos conceitos de empreendedorismo e inovação social como instrumento estratégico de sustentabilidade, bem como da forma como os mesmos implementam essas ferramentas. Percebemos que as práticas e o conhecimento que os mesmos têm na área da gestão estratégica e inovação limitam a sustentabilidade organizacional, bem como reduzem a capacidade de resposta às necessidades da população idosa. Ainda assim, observam-se gestores sociais preocupados com a diversificação e a personalização dos serviços prestados.

On the other hand, social entrepreneurship is being increasingly debated in today's world. In spite of being still an area little explored in Portugal, it begins to stand out as a transforming phenomenon of the society. The combination of these problems undoubtedly strengthens the economy and provokes changes in these contexts, as well as the region in which they work. Our research was in the municipality of Castro Daire, in the OES with services for elder people. The results obtained showed the vision of the managers / directors of these OES, regarding the concepts of entrepreneurship and social innovation as a strategic tool for sustainability, as well as how they use those tools. We have acknowledged that practices and knowledge they have in the area of strategic management and innovation limit organizational sustainability, as well as reduce their capacity to answer to the needs of the elderly population. Nevertheless, we can observe social managers concerned with the diversification and customization of the services provided.
